An encapsulated material containing an oxidation-sensitive core is covered by at least a dried synthetic organelle layer and optional additional ingredients in the organelle layer or additional layers. By using microencapsulation to mimic or otherwise adapt the storage concepts used by seeds to protect triacylglycerol cores, oxidatively unstable materials may be provided with a synthetic, seed-like oxygen-resistant protective barrier and rendered less susceptible to oxidative degradation. |
